Are you parenting on autopilot—or truly present with your child?

Miami-based licensed psychologist Dr. Alexandra Sredni, Psy. D., PLLC, joins Help Them Bloom with Evelyn Mendal for an honest and insightful conversation on the power of mindfulness in parenting. Together, they unpack how to shift from reacting to responding, why self-acceptance is key to accepting your child, and how our relationship with technology can undermine meaningful connection.

From emotional regulation to modeling mindfulness and making space for repair, this episode offers practical strategies to slow down, be present, and raise emotionally aware children—starting with your own inner work.
